Where do you manage to get these big busts from? (Ooo err matron!) Typing 'big busts' into Google comes up with something COMPLETELY different, although I wouldn't mind getting my grubby hands on a few of them and having a tinker :pray:

Started working on thanos Friday night during the live show
Started by looking at the on seem that ran down the back of his head and all the way down the back of him but it shouldn't be an issue then primed him in some Ultimate black primer 4 colour cup fulls on my Ultimate apex just to highlight any other spots that need attention and there's a couple but again shouldn't pose a problem

Update
Spent a few hours sorting the seam line on his back out tonight while chewing the fat with the lads in the hangout and I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out now lots of filler and lots and lots of sanding but its there now so let the primer dry and can start painting tomorrow 🙃🙃

Got some more base colour down tonight on the live show the masking was a big pain in the toe to get down around the edge of his neck and then used some cling film to do most of his head (saves on tape) then after the colour (badger minitaire brass monkey) was down and masking removed I started to clean up the edges where I had a bit of paint bleed but happy so far 🙃Image

Cheers mate 👍🏻 yeah it's been great the last few weeks on here it's where I started on ism so need to keep on here whenever I can, Facebook is good don't get me wrong but it gets draining at times with the ads and constant bombardment of crap from people I don't know and things I don't need lol but there is a significant drop over the forum since Facebook arrived and that's a shame hence why I'm trying to get back to it more often, so I'm here to stay 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Thanos is looking awesome. Do you have a room for him to move into when he is done? He is one big hunk of resin. Can’t wait to see the eyes.

Hopefully if I get time in between work and doing the youngest daughters new house up I might be able to get back to finishing the cave then he can have as much space as he needs 😂😂
